Storm Collectibles Street Fighter

[JoeJoe88]

Personally, I would say there is no chance. I don't recall seeing any Storm Street Fighter KOs. Amazon has a Storm Mike Tyson I would stay away from, that one has a suspiciously low price and is not shipped or sold by Amazon.

I pulled the trigger on him. Got him and a $16 Cobra BAT because of an Amazon Coupon deal.

Thanks for the heads up on the BAT, I picked up another one. Amazon has been adding the coupon to figures, but I hadn't noticed one for Joes.

Of course! I’d been waiting for an opportunity to pick up another one as well. Just outstanding figures. I just happened to see Toyshiz post the link on IG so I jumped all over that.

BBTS has Hot Ryu back up for preorder at $50. I wish they had some more figures available again at $50. I already have this Ryu, but I wouldn't mind a pink Chun-Li for a similar price.

Balrog got released! Waiting on mine.

I'm waiting for mine too, it looks great

Just paid for Balrog from Gundamit, I hope he arrives fast, need me some Storm right now.

And I got my Boxer, took it exactly 7 days to reach me.

I have to be missing something. Is there a reason it says "M. Bison" on the box? Shouldn't this character's name be printed somewhere on the front?

nvm - just educated myself. In the asian release of the game this character was named M. Bison but they changed it for american release due to concerns they might get sued by Mike Tyson. Weird for me though - since I didn't know that history. To me M. Bison is the giant dude in the red military uniform. (That guy's name is apparently Vega in Japan, and the guy I know as Vega is apparently Balrog.. so learn something new every day)

superb ! I'm waiting for mine from storm not send yet

Yeah, he's great but at the same time it's such a barebones release - just the 4 heads and not that big of a dust cloud, plus the bare torso that I'm not gonna use. Last one like this was Doomsday for me, but at least this time I like the figure itself so I'll be satisfied. Heck, I even like the default head the most. But it's hard to give Balrog anything besides that, I guess.

Oh, the butterfly disks are made out of softer plastic this time, not sure when that started, it's the first figure I've noticed it on.

Because of the name thing, professional gamers call them by their description. Dictator, Boxer, and Claw so they can communicate with Japanese players and avoid any confusion. There's some additional inside baseball for ya.

Some hands with wraps would've been cool.

Friday would be the perfect day to drop a new preorder, like a SF6 Luke or just any character from any SF game.
